This is no different. I seriously doubt most of them are genuine and instead a way to post political commentary inappropriately.
It has censored content for a variety of reasons, including to comply with government requests (which may very well be the case here, I don't see why it's not possible) [3]. In fact, the company has backtracked a number of it previous promises, when it positioned itself as a bastion for accurate information. [4]
I'm not trying to portray it as some kind of Big Tobacco monster, but it would be naive to believe that it's here for the benefit of anyone other than the shareholders.

Surely political opinions of political bodies are entirely appropriate.
Examples of places that may have long-term restrictions include police stations, prisons, oceans, seas, and schools.

If there are constraints for food supplies, staff are not going to risk their jobs to keep prisoners fed.
There needs to be a law for video audits every X weeks. Or there is a real risk of starvation in some places. Some of them are for profit and the intense racial hatred is no joke.
Kind of like "end slavery" vs "make living conditions for slaves better".
I don't like the whole system of masked guys without badgets picking up kids from the street and putting them in camps to be deported. Do you get my sentiment?
Especially since the country doing it has no, literally no moral reason to claim the land. USA is a settler colonialist project.
They even tried deporting native americans! This whole shit has to stop.
However, the reason for that is that they don't want to. They want to torture these people for the sin of being brown in America.
Second of all, it absolutely does not matter whether they are efficiently carrying out their fascist work. The official, stated purpose of ICE, as it currently stands, is cruel, unnecessary, and almost certainly in violation of international law.
I understand that ICE is a very contentious topic but this seems to happen quite often in other situations as well. It's made me value Google Maps reviews much less.
A little worrying.
Of the 4,700 newspapers published in Germany when the Nazis took power in 1933, no more that 1,100 remained. Approximately half were still in the hands of private or institutional owners, but these newspapers operated in strict compliance with government press laws and published material only in accordance with directives issued by the Ministry of Propaganda.

From their explanation of posting restrictions [1] that was linked in another comment:
> Posting on a particular place may be turned off if its category or geographic area has experienced a continuous pattern of low value or off-topic posts. Contributions are considered low value when they don’t typically play a large part in helping users decide whether to visit the place.
People being detained generally aren't asked by ICE which detention center they want to be put in, and people visiting a detention center generally are doing so to see a client or relative, so ICE detention centers fit this (as do most other incarceration facilities).
Later they list characteristics of places they may restrict, and one is:
> Generally unvisitable or have limited public access. These are places where people typically don’t have a choice about which location to go to, that aren’t open to the public, or where access to the place may be limited to people who are stationed or assigned there.
Most incarceration centers definitely fit this.
